Flash thoughts: A New World, Part 1--Reunions
So it's apparently been almost nine months since Khione announced the pregnancy, that went quick XD
Jokes aside, yeah, that one was real solid. Eric Wallace has almost always done well with Thawne, interestingly.
it was real cool to finally have The Day depicted on our screen. This has always been at the heart of Barry's character--he can't let things go, because of his survivors guilt over his mom's death and his dad's imprisonment.
To let him deal with it head-on, having already learned the hard way a few times he simply cannot change it, and being able to spend time with his parents one last time...it was very poetic, very well done.
And I really like that Barry gave Thawne a chance at an out. But Thawne's petty delusions and his rage that came from it couldn't let him take the path out of his pain.
hell, Barry even apologized for "taking the credit" for his so-called heroic moment., something Barry literally called him out for holding onto that tight in season 8 because of just how petty it is, just to give Thawne the best chance at being able to take that out. But he couldn't do it.
And while it was a little odd to have his Mr and Mrs Allen telling a complete stranger he can stay at their home for a night--not to mention with no concern for their son-- I think it does very much speak to why Barry is the kind of hero he is.
I do find it interesting that the final villain of the show is actually the Negative Speed Force itself. That's a really intriguing idea, and I'm looking forward to seeing how that goes.
I guess a bit of a shorter #FlashThoughts today. just overall, by far one of the better epsidoes this season, and honestly?
I think flash is gonna have a great last few episodes. It should haven been a great last season, especially after last season showed just how great this show could be when the writers prioritize their strengths, but at least it looks like the ending is gonna be pretty cool, cuz this episode shows all the signs of Eric Wallace's better work.
It's an epic Flash event dealing with Thawne and the Negative Speed Force with deep personal and cosmic stakes cutting to the heart of Barry's character by pitting him up against the darkest threats reality can muster.
So we may as well enjoy the ride <3
And hey, at least Grant Gustin isn't a criminal about to be overshadowed in their first headlining feature as The Flash by fanservice. It would be an awful disaster for that to be the case for a Flash actor, don't you think?

In TVLine's latest edition of Inside Line, a fan inquired whether or not Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak's daughter will make another appearance in The Flash season 8... While Wallace shot down the idea for any further season 8 appearances, The Flash boss made it clear that he hopes to bring Mia back:
“Not this year, but I do hope to have her back in Season 9.”

"The Flash" Ends His Run in Season Nine, Showrunner Says.
“The Flash” Ends His Run in Season Nine, Showrunner Says.
The Flash has heard its final starting gun on The CW. Showrunner Eric Wallace has confirmed that the long-running – and remaining – Arrowverse spinoff will end with its ninth season. This is his official statement: “Nine seasons! Nine years of saving Central City while taking audiences on an emotional journey full of heart, humor, and [spectacle. And] now Barry Allen has reached the starting gate…

I genuinely don't understand how Eric Wallace is bungling the final season of The Flash so badly. The Red Death arc was extremely ordinary. I liked Javicia Leslie as Ryan on Batwoman but she was genuinely awful as Red Death Ryan. And the last two episodes have not even had The Flash. This is literally the final season of the show and there have now been two episodes where Barry has not even used superspeed, let alone been in The Flash costume. I mean, what was the point of the Iris and Dreamer episode. Why on earth would major characterization of a Supergirl character take up time in The Flash in its final season? Makes no sense. Not to mention the absolutely horrifying handling of Caitlin/Frost/Khione and Chillblaine. I was starting to think the Chillblaine was making some positive progress but this season he has been super unlikable. And the fact that they basically killed off an OG character like Caitlin and they don't even properly address it is ridiculous. I can only hope that the final arc redeems the season somewhat because this season has so far been a major letdown after a much better season 8. Right now it genuinely feels like it will compete with season 7 for the worst season of the show.

It’s been over a week so I think I can post this.
The finale of the Flash was so much badder than I should have been. I get that certain actors and certain events about and within the crew was going on, but here’s my take on how the flash season 9 should have been.
Ep 1-5 (part 1); Rogue war: Mostly the same, but with more iconic characters who played the villains and the rogues who actually appeared. I get they had limited time, but after crisis, Cisco said that most of the villains in the entire Arrowverse came back, so have more iconic villain characters return, and some who we know are still alive (for example Heatwave, tho I read somewhere that he didn’t want to return as the character) or some characters who escaped the prison that the speed force attacked in season 7. Another thing that I’ll put here since I don’t know where else to put it, I actually liked the story with Khione, so I’d keep that in.
Ep 1-5 (part 2); Red Death: There are a multitude of different ways this character and arc could have gone. Option 1: More expensive and lots of legal work, but get the actual Bruce Wayne and try to follow a similar path on the comics (alternate universe where Bruce merged with Barry to become better) or something completely new (Have an older Bruce try to build a suit to harness the speed force like Godspeed and go insane doing so [I heard somewhere that Arrowverse Batman killed joker so that could lean into this idea more]. Option 2: Still expensive: Get the original Batwoman actor Ruby Rose and have her follow the comic origin or the new origin they made up. Option 3: Have the Red death we got be from the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline, since it made more sense, since when talking to Iris, Ryan Wilder said something about a red speedster, so move on with that information. There are a lot of different ways this could have gone, but Eric Wallace is why we got what we got, and we got a crybaby bitch version of the dreaded red death, who didn’t kill anyone, despite the show saying so in the future the original Nora was from. I did like how the real Ryan Wilder appeared to help Barry take down red death. The ending where Joe moves away was sad, though I guess it made sense for both the actor and the character, though I did like seeing Cecile and Joes daughter, since it would have made more Spence if she appeared dung the Armageddon crossover when Joe died, though it wasn’t the worst case scenario . The reveal that Iris is pregnant with Nora was a slight surprise I didn’t see coming.
Ep 6-8: Mainly filler episodes, which could have been much better than the ones we got. First off, and this will be a tangent later, why and what was the purpose to making Cecile a superhero; Virtue, who is an entirely different character than Cecile. Seriously, it felt more like the Cecile and friends show than The Flash. Episode 6 was basically filler, but they could’ve shown us more of Central City outside Barry’s perspective, to help us understand why the city is the way it is. Episode 7 was basically some lore, but mainly lore for Supergirl’s show, they could have told us more about what has been happening in National City since the shows ending and how the characters have been since then as well. It was too bad that Melissa couldn’t come back to the Flash as Supergirl as predicted. Episode 8 was mostly filler as well, since all it did was be an episode in one setting; Star labs. The Chester and Allegra relationship parts were mid at best. Episode 9, was amazing. It honestly should have been a two-parter, replacing episode 8 and having 9 has the second part. The story was amazing, Barry’s birth, the guilt he feels as the Flash, John Diggle’s return and his small story, Wally’s story and the knowledge of the new multiverse Oliver as the Spectre created, Oliver’s return and his story, Ramsey returning and his new plan and his eventual defeat, and Oliver saying that the future we saw that he and Felicity reunited hasn’t happened yet was amazing. His final words to Barry and how Barry finally got closure to his best friends death was so sweet. Thank you Steven Amell.
Ep 8-13 (part 1): Episode 10 though, that was something we have been expecting for 9 years. With the start of the Cobalt Blue storyline and the ending of the series, we were expecting big things. Episode 10 was one of those. The whole, Iris getting a Pulitzer Prize was nice since Nora mentioned that she gets 2 in the future, so that was nice, and so was Khione writing letters to Mark, Caitlin and Frost. Then we get into the good stuff, Barry getting sent back to the past, March 18, 2000, the day his mother is murdered by the Reverse Flash, and his father is sent to jail. Seeing Matt Lentscher return as the real Eobard Thawne was nice, though I wish that after Flashpoint, Matt appeared more and in Tom Cavanagh, no offense to either. The whole, blue crystal thing was a bit confusing for me but it seemed to make some sense. We also got to see the last time Barry got to interact with his parents, which was heartwarmingly sad. But then, we get to that fight on that night. With Barry trying to save Thawne, and eventually leading to the fight we’ve been waiting for for over 9 years. Seeing Barry tell his young self, ‘no Barry, no running this time’ was so good! Barry last words with Eobard were amazing due to it being the only time Barry knew what Eobard was doing before he knew himself, before Barry being teleported somewhen else making Eobard think he won due to Barry seemingly dying in front of him. Then we get a reveal of Malcolm Gilmore , a nearly identical copy of Eddie Thawne in 2049, before being struck by lightning and seeing a folder of Eddie. The only problems that I have with this episode is that we never see what happens to the original Barry Allen, the Flash who got struck by lightning in 2020 and who disappeared in Crisis four years later in 2024. We never got to know him or see his life and original timeline, minus a few words and hints we got from Thawne over the course of the series. Another thing is that we never got to see how Barry ‘ruined’ Thawne’s life in the future. We got a few hints during seasons 2,3,8 and here in season 9, as well as some during his time on Legends of Tomorrow, but we never saw how Barry did it, whether it be the original Barry Allen, or our Barry Allen.
Ep 8-13 (part 2) episode 11: This episode wasn’t that good compared to the two episodes that came before, but it also was not as nearly as bad as it could’ve been. First, the story of ‘ Malcolm Gilmore’ trying to find out who Eddie Thawne was was so good. The return of Korber was slightly surprising, due to her new position in the future as the captain of CCPD (rip). The speed force Nora and team flash trying to find Barry and fight Mark(Chillblaine) under the influence of the crystal was nice. Seeing how powerful Khione was in instantly killing and reviving Mark was so surprising! Iris then goes into labor. And the reveal of Malcolm being Eddie who was brought back by the negative forces and sent to the future by the singularity was a surprising callback that I’m sure all of us forgot. And the bullet still being in Eddie’s heart before pulling it out was so surprising.
Ep 8-13 (part 3) Episode 12: After accidentally killing Captain Korber (rip), Eddie goes to star labs where the 2049 team flash have just defeated the teased and long awaited villain, the Chronarch. After Eddie sees all the times Eobard came back despite his sacrifice, Nora comes to help him, only to be possessed by the blue crystal. After Barry is taken the future and fights the possessed Nora, he talks to Eddie who blames everything on Barry, his death, him being forgotten, and Barry and Iris’s family. After going to visit future Iris, who rejects him , Eddie then makes us his mind, becomes Cobalt Blue, and revived some of the Flash’s greatest enemies. My only problem I have with this episode and the finale is that more characters should have appeared, a big example, Bart West-Allen. I don’t know why Jordan William Fisher couldn’t appear, I’ll search for why later but I do wish he appeared.
For episodes 13, I’ll make another post due to this one being WAY to long.

TheFlash, el héroe que debió morir
Tumblr media
Han transcurrido unos meses desde el capítulo final de la serie "The Flash", y lo único destacable de la última temporada es que finalmente ha concluido. Se confirmó que el verdadero villano de la serie fue su propio showrunner, Eric Wallace, alguien que pareció no entender nunca al personaje principal y que por alguna razón, creía que sus historias eran buenas a pesar de la decadencia de la calidad. Aunque gran parte de la responsabilidad recae en él, también es necesario reconocer que "The Flash" debió haber terminado en su cuarta temporada o, a más tardar, en la temporada en que se emitió "Crisis en Tierras Infinitas". Como he mencionado en varios artículos, el Arrowverso oficialmente llegó a su fin en este megacrossover, y a pesar de que algunas de sus series continuaron, se notaba una crisis en la calidad, en el rating y hasta en las propias producciones, hasta el punto que la cancelación llevaron a algunas a conclusiones abruptas (Legends of Tomorrow y Black Lightning) y a otras a conclusiones mediocres (Batwoman y Supergirl). En el caso de "The Flash", personalmente siento que la serie ya había perdido su brillo, y la decisión de la CW de otorgarle una última temporada a pesar de las críticas y la falta de creatividad en el equipo solo empeoró las cosas. De hecho, le agarré tirria porque "Legends of Tomorrow" merecía una oportunidad de despedirse a su modo, pero el canal prefirió al velocista.

Flash Thoughts 9x09--It's My Party and I'll Die if I Want To
Full spoilers ahead!
Tonight was the Return of The CW's Flash, and thus the return of Flash Thoughts! I of course wasn't in town to do Flash Thoughts for the last two episodes so I'm excited to get into this again
So, to get it out of the way
OLIVER QUEEN IS BACK
But how is it handled? Does it do the Godfather of the Arrowverse justice (no pun intended)?
I'd say...Yes. But. the episode is still a bit of a mixed bag. Let's back up a bit.
I think the way they set this story in motion was actually really interesting. Using the weird superaging Barry had to deal with and then got reversed to give Barry a superhero-enforced version of a crisis many people deal with when they hit 30---
Am i using my time on earth wisely?
And to dive into Barry's survival guilt is definitely always an interesting angle to explore. It's fundamental to his entire journey as the Flash.
I genuinely love the kind of meta angle of him being the star, and thus everyone who dies dies for him because he's the most important part of the show
Taking a look at Wally's trauma about being left behind and feeling undervalued and taken advantage of was really interesting too. What we saw tonight was a very similar pain to what we saw all the way back in season 2 when he was first introduced. And honestly, it makes a lot of sense. plus it was interesting to revisit his whole "finding myself" thing that he's been doing for absolutely ages and kinda give a solid reason why it's necessary for kinda the first time haha
it was really cool to get bloodwork back. the CGI monster he turned into was iffy (CW budgets, what can you do), and actually overall I just don't think the VFX for his powers was handled as well as in his original appearance, but I still think he was great.
And Oliver was literally the healthiest he's ever been. It only took him until he died apparently.
Regardless, I actually think this episode handled his return quite well. He's still The Specter (or is it Spectre?) so he can't just pop down to earth any time he likes, but it was established in COIE that even after his death at the hands of the Anti-Monitor and his sacrifice he still existed in some capacity. I think his story from Arrow was used very well to push Barry forward, and their relationship is always really strong and continues to be so.
Oh and of course Ollie's time with dig was beautiful too.
I'll give Eric Wallace this--execution aside, this show has never believed in any benefits of toxic masculinity. It is...genuinely awesome to see men casually and sincerely telling one another "i love you" without an ounce of shame. Oliver and dig saying that to each other in particular was very powerful, because it does show how different Oliver is from where he began.
i know some folks will be pissed about the Green lantern ring thing, and I'll be honest, while i respect what they went for I understand the frustration. It seemed like they were heading in the direction of an exciting payoff to a long held fan theory that slowly became canon, and that would let Dig really transcend Oliver's story. But...I do also get that Dig does not like the cosmic shit. He never has. It would be a little weird for him to go off into space and be a Green Lantern when he's never even stopped puking when Barry uses his super speed.
Anyways, moving on...It's kinda annoying it took three years, but team Flash finally learns about the existence of the new multiverse! Shame we'll never get to see anything done with that though.
Khione gets some confirmation of some of why she is the way she is--specifically, that she is "tuned into the natural order of things". Kinda intriguing, looking forward to seeing where that goes.
Glad we got to dig into the fact that Barry is still mourning Caitlin and Frost too.
In fact, all of this is so interesting, it really ought to have been given more time.
Yeah i think that's my biggest criticism of this episode. It's not so much the content of it, it's that it genuinely feels like this should have been the meat of about half the season and they put it all in one episode.
Especially because this episode played to the strengths that made season 8 so fantastic!
Eric Wallace's Flash has showed multiple times that it's strengths come
A) when it plays with the rest of the Arrowverse in a way that furthers the story of this show
and
B) when it goes really dark and even leans into horror a bit
and the problem is, he's spent most of his run actively leaning away from both. This episode shows just how much of a mistake that is.
Not letting Red Death be Ryan from the Armageddon timeline? Not doing a proper Batwoman/Flash team-up? Not letting Red Death lean into the horror aesthetic her costume easily could have connected her to and instead having those somewhat campy screaming breakdowns and the vibrating camouflage voice? Not letting Red Death lean into the absolutely twisted nature of the comics Red Death?
Eric Wallace's highest points as showrunner were the original Bloodwork story and season 8, especially the Armageddon and Deathstorm arcs (slightly iffy Armageddon finale notwithstanding)
All of these are decisions that lean away from those strengths, and while I'm still enjoying the final season, that's a significant error in judgement on his part.
Anyways. See you next week for more Flash Thoughts on...apparently the return of Matt Letscher's Thawne in a villainous role!

Really apprehensive about The Flash series finale.....
Despite my issues with Eric Wallace and all the various dumb decisions he has made this season, I have enjoyed this final arc so far. But I am very apprehensive about the finale. For one thing, it literally feels that we have just reached the tipping point of the final arc. It feels that there is still 2-3 episodes worth of story to come, now actually going up against Cobalt Blue and the other villains. Instead, all of it is stuffed into one episode. I can only imagine it will feel ridiculously rushed. Carlos mentioning that he wasn't able to make it for the final episode breaks my heart. He's such an essential part of the show that it just feel like an injustice. I don't know how they could not make the schedule work when they knew the show was ending a year in advance. Then we also know that Grant got covid with 6 days left to shoot and they shot around it. I don't know how that would work with your main lead not there. I'm sure it will make for some awkward blocking shots. Apparently we were robbed of a Savitar and Zoom faceoff as a result. So that leaves me with a lot of apprehension going into the finale. I don't expect it to be great, but I hope it can at least be good and not focused on Cecile, Khione, Chester, Mark, and Allegra. I found it deeply frustrating that Barry only appeared midway through the penultimate episode. Again goes back to wondering what Eric Wallace was thinking when making this final season.
